C H A P T E R 1 Getting started N N OT E SMART Sync Class List Server and SMART Administrator Tools - Classlist Manager are optional. You don t need to install them to use the teacher and student components. However, there are benefits to installing them. Which of these components you install depends on whether you re implementing SMART Classroom Suite software in a single classroom or across your school or district. Single classroom installation A single classroom installation includes all components except SMART Administrator Tools - Classlist Manager and SMART Sync Class List Server. Teachers and students connect through SMART Sync software as follows: The teacher creates his or her own teacher ID, classes, application blocking rules and Internet blocking rules and manages the class with SMART Sync Teacher software. Students connect to the teacher through SMART Sync Student software by selecting the teacher s ID from a drop-down list or by entering the teacher computer host name or IP address. See Installing the software in a single classroom on page 7 for instructions on completing this type of installation. N N OT E Although this type of installation is preferable if you re installing SMART Classroom Suite software in a single classroom, complete the procedures for a school- or district-wide installation if you re considering installing SMART Classroom Suite software in other classrooms in the future. School- or district-wide installation A school- or district-wide installation includes all components of SMART Classroom Suite software. Teachers and students connect to each other through SMART Sync Class List Server. Unlike in single classroom installations, in school- or district-wide installations, teacher IDs, classes, application blocking rules and Internet blocking rules are centrally managed in SMART School files created with SMART Administrator Tools - Classlist Manager. This makes this type of installation ideal for implementing SMART Classroom Suite software across your school or district. See Installing the software across a school or district on page 15 for instructions on completing this type of installation. 5

Connecting students to teachers After you install SMART Sync Teacher software on the teacher computer and SMART Sync Student software on student computers, students can connect to the teacher computer through the software. By default, SMART Sync Student software starts in visible mode when a student first logs on to his or her computer. The student then enters his or her ID and connects to the teacher computer by doing one of the following: Selecting the teacher s ID from a drop-down list of teachers currently logged on to SMART Sync Teacher software if multicasting is enabled on your school s network Entering the host name or IP address of the teacher computer if multicasting isn t enabled on your school s network T T I P Teachers can determine the IP address of their computers by selecting Help > About SMART Sync in SMART Sync Teacher software. In some classrooms, students always connect to the same teacher or teacher computer. For these situations, you can configure SMART Sync Student software to connect to a specified teacher ID, host name or IP address rather than require the students to provide this information each time they log on. 9

C H A P T E R 3 Installing the software across a school or district teacher computers and SMART Notebook SE software and SMART Sync Student software on student computers. Installing teacher and student software across a school or district involves three steps: 1. Locating the installation files 2. Customizing the installation packages 3. Deploying the installation packages Installation packages and supporting files Before you can customize or deploy SMART software, you must locate the installation packages and supporting files. Installation packages There are five installation packages (also known as MSI files) for SMART Classroom Suite software: Installation package File name Components SMART Classroom Suite Teacher software SMART Education Software 2011.msi SMART Notebook software SMART Product Drivers SMART Response software SMART Sync Teacher software SMART Classroom Suite Student software SMART Administrator Tools Adobe Flash Player ActiveX control Adobe Flash Player plug-in SMART Classroom Suite Student.msi SMART Administrator Tools 2011.msi install_flash_player_ 10_active_x.msi install_flash_player_ 10_plugin.msi SMART Notebook SE software SMART Sync Student software SMART Administrator Tools - Classlist Manager SMART Sync Class List Server Adobe Flash Player ActiveX control (for SMART Notebook software) Adobe Flash Player plug-in (for SMART Response software) Download these installation packages from smarttech.com/administratordownloads. Save the packages in a location on your network that s accessible to all computers on which you plan to install the software. Language files If you plan to deploy the installation packages in a language other than English (U.S.), ensure the corresponding MST file for the language is in the same folder as the MSI file (see Installation language files and codes on page 101). 32

C H A P T E R 3 Installing the software across a school or district Similarly, if you want teachers to be able to view and use SMART Notebook software in a language other than English, you must download and install the appropriate language pack (see Language packs on page 103). If you want to support handwriting recognition in SMART Notebook SE software in a language other than English, you must download and install the MSI file for the language (see Handwriting recognition language files and codes on page 102). Customizing the installation packages Before you deploy installation packages, you can customize them for your environment by creating MST files. I I M P OR T A N T If you installed SMART Sync Class List Server and SMART Administrator Tools - Classlist Manager and created a SMART School file, customize the SMART Classroom Suite Teacher software installation package to reference the SMART School file location and the SMART Classroom Suite Student software installation package to reference the SMART Sync Class List Server location. You can create MST files using SMART Install Manager (see page 41). OR You can create MST files using a third-party tool such as Orca database editor and the Windows Installer properties (see page 59). Deploying the software You can deploy installation packages using the command line interface. OR You can deploy installation packages using third-party imaging or remote management software. N N OT E You might need to manually activate the software after you deploy it. Using the command line interface Using the command line interface, you can deploy installation packages in many ways, including running commands from the Command Prompt window and including commands in batch script files. I I M P OR T A N T Before you deploy the SMART Sync Teacher software installation package, you must install Windows Installer 4.5 (see support.microsoft.com/kb/942288). 33
